“Simple Trick for Adding Videos to PowerPoint on Your Phone”

The majority of people typically create PowerPoint slides on a computer or laptop. However, it is possible to create slides using a smartphone when a computer is not available. This article provides a guide on how to insert videos into PowerPoint on your phone.

Why Insert Videos in PowerPoint?

Before delving into the process of inserting videos into PowerPoint on your phone, it is important to understand the significance of including videos in presentations. PowerPoint is a widely-used tool for studying and working, helping users design presentations that enhance audience visualization and comprehension. While text and images alone can appear monotonous, inserting videos in slides makes presentations more engaging and facilitates better understanding of the topic at hand.

Inserting videos into PowerPoint on a computer is a well-known process. However, what if you need to do it on a phone without access to a computer? The answer is yes. The following content provides detailed instructions on how to achieve this.
